The Citizen reports that the Department of Higher Education and Training posted a link on the SA Government Facebook page on Monday for 2018 matriculants to use to browse the list of registered private higher education institutions and the courses they were qualified to offer.  

The list was updated in October last year.  The department also issued a warning to students and their parents, urging them to be aware of bogus colleges when applying at institutions of higher learning.  The department further encouraged all prospective students who had not been offered a place at the institution to which they have applied and still wished to study at universities or colleges this year to make use of the services of the central application clearinghouse.  Prospective students can contact the service’s contact centre on 0860 356 635, SMS their names and ID numbers to 49200, or visit the website <https://cach.dhet.gov.za/Applicant/UsingCACH> to seek university or college placement assistance.
